    I'm... a bit confused by what you mean.

    Like if you can get away with doing any material policy you want why bother with the propaganda to convince people it's good actually, just like, do it.

        Yeah which seems to suggest the opinion of the masses does actually matter.

        Idk feel like we're talking past each other.

          The opinions? No. The actions? Yes. The rich are always just a few weeks away from being completely destroyed by the working class taking actions. Propaganda isn't there because they care about public opinion. Propaganda is there to prevent mass action.
